Janusz Palikot’s book, Nothing – memory (nothing – making). Ontology. On the margins of Leśmian, is a journey through the main themes of Bolesław Leśmian’s literary output. The author makes a bold attempt to read afresh the works of one of the most important representatives of the interwar period in Poland. Ultimately, we are surprised by the great number of possible interpretations. The authors weaves a fine net of original parallels and surprising analogies. Particularly noteworthy is the iconographic material selected for the publication, which allows the author to expand the field of analysis of a particular theme. Thanks to these illustrations, the book sheds a light on the philosophical origin of the outstanding poet’s way of thinking.
